GM's thread about nothing (13 Viewers)

Dual purpose schtick:

To honor GB Ralph Saints-Man, and to pay homage the Strangest thing you've been called during "passion" time? thread, I'm gonna go make love to Mrs. BL.

And call Pocahontas.

This should go well.

Call Mrs. Layne "Pocahontas"?Cause that would be cool.

 
Yeah, I've been pretty bummed about the Saints Man news since I read it a few hours ago. I think Bobby Layne said it best in his 'nice guy' description. SM reached out to me several times via PM, either to ask further questions about something I'd written or to ask about personal details that he didn't want to ask 'out loud'. I don't ever recall him complaining or acting confrontational. I wish I'd known about his troubles if for no other reason than I would have liked to have reached out at least once or twice and told him I was thinking about him.I started the Male Cheerleader thread on a whim and never thought much about doing it. This was back when I would start a few threads each week...some stuck around, most just vanished. But this one little throw-away thread opened Saints Man up and he delivered one of the most entertaining stories the board has ever seen.RIP Ralph. :(
I just looked back at the thread where he and I went back and forth about evolution and its necessity to biology. He was a little flippant to start with but quickly realized he had a misinformed view and actually apologized to me about it. You never see that. Ever.

What thread was that?
 
Oh oh oh!!! Someone tell Mr Pickleguy I'm sorta good at Scrabble and I'd like to have a go.

 
I've been away for a few pages and got no time to catch up.

Can I get a summary?

Last night I was at the Pinstripe Bowl. It was a somewhat boring game because both quarterbacks were trying their hardest to do a Tyler Palko impression. (They were missing wide open SCREEN passes, for effe's sake). Fortunately I smuggled in a healthy flask of Jameson's. I'm not sure if I looked like an alcoholic while sucking on this thing, or as my BIL said, a professor loving his Irish whiskey. I like to think the later, though I'm pretty sure the middle-aged businessmen behind me thought I had issues. !@#$ them. It was a football game. A lame football game. I'm getting drunk and I ain't paying no $8 a cup of Bud Lite swill to do it.

:football:

 
My wife is a teacher and several of her students gave her chocolate for Christmas. She has acid reflux issues and can't eat chocolate so therefore I've been able to do the following taste-test:

chocolate-covered Nutter Butters >> chocolate-covered popcorn >>> chocolate-covered Oreos

 
You know, certain foods like Taco Bell and gyros and chili have a deserved reputation for producing some horrendous odorific emanations. But good lord, the Steak n Shake bombs I've been dropping this morning could land me on a terrorist watch list. I mean, just absolutely horrifying. I might go get some Taco Bell just to upgrade my stank.

 
not sure how many times I may check in to the GMTAN today but just wanted to wish everyone a happy, healthy, and safe New Years

 
I'm about a week late with thanks, but I have to give a huge shout out to cosjobs for my non-SS Secret Santa gift.

A simple mention that I was looking at getting a Roku Player for my kids and getting a Kindle Fire for myself, got a PM asking for my address and a package on my door days later. The contents included:

A Roku box with remote control and all cables needed!!

A brand new Bunco set still in the wrapper!! (He had no idea that my parents play Bunco once a week with a large group and they loved getting something out of the box. The set was used on Christmas day.)

The Case Of The Fiery Fingers: a Perry Mason Mystery (I could almost make CPC with the woman on the front cover.)

A brand new Stone Mountain wallet, still in the box!

A bottle of French beverage that may or may not be somewhere around 36 years old!! (Never opened.)

An XL UHEM t-shirt (Would have been too small 4 months ago, now on the big side, but I will still wear with pride. I remember having a call with cosjobs about being on the UHEM street team for Dallas. Is that position still open?)

A thumb-drive with enough content to keep my Kindle Fire busy for years!! (This truly was the best thing in the box.)

I was still in a post-surgery stupor on Christmas Day, but I made sure to show both of my brothers and my cousins my box of presents and tell each one of them about how "Internet Friends" sent presents across the country to each other, and how even though I didn't get in on the SS this year, I still was the beneficiary of the Christmas spirit.

So I lift a glass of Homebrew to cosjobs and say a huge Thank You!!

 
I'm starting a weight loss contest with some friends on Monday. Just got back from the McDonalds drive through with a double QP, large fries and large root beer.

:shuke:

You are starting perfectly. Best to have that initial weigh-in with some extra pounds. Easier to drop them once the contest starts.
 
Everything hurts.

From 4pm until sometime in the early morning hours I believe I did the following:

Had beers and shots with Thorn and his cool Reese's shirt for a couple hours. One of the coolest guys you'll ever meet and I wish we could've better planned this so we could've hung out longer instead of just meeting for a few drinks before the Celtics game I was going to.

After parting ways with Thorn (awkward hug) I went to my buddy's apartment before the Celts game and had another beer and another shot. We then went to Celts game and continued consuming beer in the 1st half of game. I then pretty much blacked out during the 2nd half because I have no recollection of anything from halftime until we left. (I had later asked my buddy "we won, right?")

After leaving the game we went to a bar and continued the beer and shot recipe that seemed to be working so well. When my buddy went to the bathroom, I saw an older almost eldery Asian couple sitting in a booth across from me so I invited myself to sit down with them. The woman's english wasn't very good and I'm pretty sure she was scared of me. The guy was nice enough, kinda chatty and I found his full head of white hair to be intriguing, I may have asked him what kind of hair product he used. (My buddy told me this morning that I kept referring to the old guy as "Asian-Tanner") We left that bar and went to another bar that had a far younger crowd. Beers and shots continued. I played "Sweet Caroline" on the jukebox and announced that I was dedicating it to YSR. My buddy was thoroughly confused and asked me who or what is YSR. I told him she was Tony Romo's wife and that seemed to be enough explanation for him. I pulled up a chair to a table full of rowdy college-aged guys and I could sense there was a little too much testosterone and beer muscles at the table. I told a few jokes and the tension went away, then I told them about my 22 year old and I got several high 5's, fist bumps, a hug and 1 really ugly kid told me he wanted to be me when he grew up. There was one really big guy at the table who I thought was going to punch me when I first sat down, actually paid my bar tab when we left. I think it was then that my buddy told me that if I was going to throw up I better do it now before we get back to his apartment because his girlfriend is still mad about the last time I threw up in their living room. I know we stopped at another bar but I don't remember much at this point. I do remember we walked back to his apartment carrying 2 large pizzas and I'm pretty sure I threw up along the way. I have no idea what time I finally passed out on their couch but I know I woke up around 9 and discovered I had on my shirt, my socks and shoes but I did not have any pants on. (I'm pretty sure it's not normal that this happens to me alot and I have no idea how or why it happens) My buddy's girlfriend walked over and gave a me glass of ice water and said happy new year as she was leaving to go grocery shopping. I asked her if she knew where my pants were and as she walked out the door she said "yep, for some reason that I don't want to know, your pants are in the kitchen folded nicely on the microwave. Drive safe and I'll see you next time".

I'd say I never felt more hungover, but I'm sure I have. I was wandering the streets of Boston this morning trying to find the garage I parked in last night and finally realized that I had walked past it by about 4 blocks. I tripped on something and fell to one knee and began dry heaving on the sidewalk. I got up and pulled myself together and noticed a homeless man sitting a few feet away from me and I looked so awful that the homeless man wouldn't make eye contact with me. He had a disgusted look on face and looked away right when I looked at him.

I think I'm going to bed now.

 
Oh and a few minutes ago I emptied out my coat pockets and discovered a card with a Celtics website that brought me to this which I have no recollection of.
